Finally

I left work last night around 5am. Latest I have ever worked. Fortunately, my new producer was there with me, therefore was aware of the hours I've been putting in on this project. She decided that I could be "on call" for today, so guess what folks, I got the day off! Got a call around 5 asking if I could come in tomorrow for a few hours to cover for someone who couldn't be there until one. I agreed and then around 8ish I got a call that I didn't need to come in for that either! I don't want to get ahead of myself, but I think I may actually get a weekend. O.M.G.

I did the Yoga DVD again today and it was actually really nice. My body was incredibly sore though. I went ahead and did my 20 minute meditation afterwards and that was pleasant as well. It was nice to be meditating when I actually had the time to meditate. The rest of the day was a blur of waking up and walking the dog, eating and then going back to sleep.

My sister and her friend arrived this evening, so we're going to take it easy tomorrow with some shopping and then we're going to see my hero, Aziz Ansari, do stand up at Carnegie Hall. Very excited. Front row, that's how we roll baby.

This week has been full of many ups and downs and it's put into question the practicality of being a Buddhist in modern America. I will expound on this in an upcoming post, maybe on Sunday after my guests leave. For now, I'm going to take advantage of being able to go to bed when it's actually night time.
